I've transported my PC (completely assembled, with the TRUE still attached to the mobo) in the backseat of my car for 15-20 miles or so. I hit a few potholes which kinda scared me... the TRUE has a backplate, but it still shook like crazy a few times. Turned out fine though, maybe I was just overly worried.
